GAINESVILLE, Fla. – Four members of the Florida baseball team received 2023 All-America honors from D1Baseball on Thursday afternoon in first baseman/designated hitter Jac Caglianone<https://floridagators.com/sports/baseball/roster/jac-caglianone/15489> (First Team), outfielder Wyatt Langford<https://floridagators.com/sports/baseball/roster/wyatt-langford/15497> (First Team), shortstop Josh Rivera<https://floridagators.com/sports/baseball/roster/josh-rivera/15504> (Second Team) and starting pitcher Hurston Waldrep<https://floridagators.com/sports/baseball/roster/hurston-waldrep/15517> (Second Team).
